A charming detached 18th-century stone farmhouse enjoying a wonderfully private and peaceful countryside setting, with no near neighbours, far-reaching rural views and approximately 4 acres of gardens and paddocks. Offering excellent potential for equestrian use, a smallholding or an off-grid lifestyle, the property also benefits from extensive stabling and outbuildings. Freehold. EPC Band D. Council Tax Band D.
The Property – The farmhouse offers characterful and versatile accommodation, including a spacious sitting room with an impressive inglenook fireplace and recently fitted wood-burning stove, dining room/home office and a conservatory opening onto the gardens. The recently updated dual-aspect kitchen features modern farmhouse-style units, while the ground floor also provides a bathroom, laundry room, utility/work room and useful boot room with direct access to the stable yard. Character features include exposed beams, plank and flagstone flooring and traditional doors. Upstairs are three double bedrooms enjoying attractive views over the gardens and surrounding countryside. Double-glazed windows and doors have recently been installed throughout.
Outbuildings & Equestrian Facilities – A particular feature is the extensive range of outbuildings. An attached cob barn offers scope for a home office, hobby space or ancillary accommodation and previously had planning permission, now lapsed, for conversion to one-bedroom holiday accommodation (Torridge District Council ref. 1/1330/2018/FUL). The stable yard includes three stables and a foaling box, together with tack, freezer and workshop rooms and an open-fronted log store. There is also a substantial modern timber barn/triple garage with power, lighting, mezzanine storage and an adjoining carport, plus a further cob barn within the paddocks.
Gardens & Land – The property extends to approximately 4 acres, with ample parking, attractive lawned gardens and paved and gravelled seating areas ideal for outdoor entertaining. There are four interconnected, stock-fenced paddocks with field shelters and a magnificent mature oak tree providing natural shade. The layout has been designed for straightforward movement of livestock between paddocks. A further approximately 4 acres may be available by separate negotiation.
Services – Mains water, private drainage via septic tank and oil-fired central heating, with a new heating system installed approximately one year ago. Electricity is supplied off-grid via solar PV panels and battery storage, supported by a recently installed generator when required. There is no mains electricity, making this an appealing opportunity for buyers seeking a more self-sufficient rural lifestyle.
